English translation

485. It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Perform ablution after (eating) that which has been changed by fire." Ibn 'Abbâs said: "Should I do ablution after (touching) hot water?" Abu Hurairah said: "O son of my brother, when I narrate a Hadith of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ to you, then do not try to make any examples for it."[1] (Hasan)

Arabic text

485 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «تَوَضَّئُوا مِمَّا غَيَّرَتِ النَّارُ» فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: أَتَوَضَّأُ مِنَ الْحَمِيمِ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ: يَا ابْنَ أَخِي، إِذَا سَمِعْتَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَدِيثًا، فَلَا تَضْرِبْ لَهُ الْأَمْثَالَ

Commentary

'That has been changed by fire' means anything that has been prepared by cooking or frying on fire. Ahādīth included in the next chapter would clarify that the command is not mandatory, which is to say that performing ablution after eating recipes cooked on fire is recommendatory, not mandatory.
